Last night I attended the Urban Farm Store's free class on how to keep chickens. Their book on keeping chickens will be coming out in March. Now I've got to start designing and building a coop. The recommended flock starting size is 3 chickens for city dwellers. It's going to be difficult to choose which breeds. I definitely want an Ameraucana. They lay such beautiful blue-green eggs and are reputed to have very pleasant personalities.
I'll probably get a Brahma too,
and a Barred Plymouth Rock,
a Rhode Island Red,
Silver Laced Wyandotte,
and a Buff Orpington.
... oh wait, how many did I say?
